Abrasive, Absorbent

Mica refers to a group of silicate minerals. Mica crystals are easily split to give products a shimmer. These crystals are able to reflect light to temporarily give your skin a glowy look.

Mica is found to be safe. Trace amounts of heavy metals may be found in mica, but these metals are not harmful in our personal products.

Mica has been used since prehistoric times throughout the world. Ancient Egyptian, Indian, Greek, Roman, Aztec, and Chinese civilizations have used mica.

Mica can be naturally found throughout the world. However, some sources of mica may be controversial. In 2016, mica mined in the Jharkhand state in India was found to be using child labor. However, companies are able to source ethical mica affiliated with international organizations that monitor the mica supply chain.

TL;DR: There are worse options I've tried, but made me break out and has a very strong scent. Expensive for the amount you get. May work for you if your skin isn't acne-prone.

I picked this up because it went viral on social media on release. It did make my skin very glowy and dewy, but it's really not the miracle holy grail influencers want you to believe it is. Maybe it's just not for skin Show more
